torts 's review for:
Sex Criminals, Volume 1: One Weird Trick
by Matt Fraction
The non-chronological storytelling and realistic dialogue sometimes made it hard for me to follow the plot. Not enough signaling what's going on with multiple Suzies (or other characters who are more metaphorical than literal) in a panel (which, I understand, is a stylistic choice). For the most part, though, I was a fan of the sexy librarian and her bad-boy lover. More of a fan of her than him, even if he is enough of a book-nerd to quote the beginning of Lolita in the middle of a party.
I was amused by (but a little confused by the screenplay-y wording of) the meta bit about not having the rights to a song. Also, the Photo Swap thing at the very end was adorable. I liked that they described themselves as "the writer of "Hawkeye" and "the guy who talks to Applebee's on Facebook."
